“Line By Line” is a song by JP Saxe featuring country star Maren Morris. This is the duo’s first collaboration. The song describes how difficult it is to describe a good relationship in a song, so the writer decides to take the relationship line by line. They filmed a music video to accompany the so...
[Verse 1: JP Saxe]
There are things that I sing
That I'd never have the confidence to say
There are things I believe
That I only figure out when I sit down to play
The truth don't scare me in a melody
Immortalizing my sincerity
There are things that I sing
That I'd never have the confidence to say
[Pre-Chorus: JP Saxe, JP Saxe & Maren Morris]
Like that song about my parents that I'll never show 'em
And the ones about my exes that they don't deserve
But when it comes to you
I'm still trying to find the words
[Chorus: JP Saxe & Maren Morris]
Love too big for a love song
If I tried to sum it up, I know I'd get it wrong
Sometimes if it don't sound right
I apologize, I just said it 'cause it rhymed
Four chords, three minutes, you never fit in it
So I just take you line by line
Ooh, ooh-ooh
I'll be writing about you for the rest of my life
(Line by line by line by line by line) Line by line
[Verse 2: Maren Morris]
There are things that I sing
That I'll never have the confidence to say
Like I'm still not convinced
That I won't be too much for you someday
Yeah, we both know the way it goes
Hear my fears all on the radio
There are things that I sing
That I'll never have the confidence to say
[Chorus: JP Saxe & Maren Morris, Maren Morris]
Love too big for a love song
If I tried to sum it up, I know I'd get it wrong
Sometimes if it don't sound right
I apologize, I just said it 'cause it rhymed
Four chords, three minutes, you never fit in it
So I just take you line by line
Ooh, ooh-ooh
I'll be writing about you for the rest of my life
(Line by line by line by line by line) Line by line
I'll be writing about you for the rest of my life
(Line by line by line by line by line) Line by line
I'll be writing about you for the rest of my life
[Bridge: Maren Morris, JP Saxe & Maren Morris]
I know it's complicated having all your shit on display
I appreciate the way you make it work
When it comes to you
I'm still trying to find the words
[Chorus: JP Saxe & Maren Morris, JP Saxe]
Love too big for a love song
If I tried to sum it up, I know I'd get it wrong
Sometimes if it don't sound right
I apologize, I just said it 'cause it rhymed
Four chords, three minutes, you never fit in it
So I just take you line by line
Ooh, ooh-ooh
I'll be writing about you for the rest of my life
(Line by line by line by line by line) Line by line
I'll be writing about you for the rest of my life
(Line by line by line by line by line) Line by line
I'll be writing about you for the rest of my life

My first thought about this song is that it’s surreal I get to be sharing it with one of my favorite artists ever. Regarding what it’s about…as songwriters, we spend a lot of our lives trying to bottle up a feeling into a song, and often, the biggest feelings, the best ones… the complicated, detaile...
I have always loved being contemplative of the artist vs. muse relationship in songs. ‘Line by Line’ acts as a promise that I’ll never be done writing about my muse in this life because he can’t be summed up in one song. Writing that day with JP was the most fluid, inspiring session. He’s a lyrical...
JP Saxe:
I’m a huge fan of Maren Morris. I think she’s a brilliant singer-songwriter. And we happened to have the shared experience of both being in love with other songwriters, so we talked about it. With very little exception, my favourite co-writes are just the ones that come directly from a con...
